“Series Premiere” This scintillating German drama set in the 1980s and based on real events is the latest entry in Walter Presents, which promotes the best foreign language drama series from across the world.
Though Gerd Heidemann appears to be Stern magazine’s top reporter, looks can be deceiving. As Heidemann hasn’t had a major exclusive in a while, his boss is on him to come through with one. There are rumours that Heidemann has a secret obsession with Hitler because he owns the boat once owned by Hermann Goring and is romantically involved with Hermann’s daughter, Edda.
Konrad Kujau is another person that is really interested in Adolf. Although Kujau presents himself as Dr. Konrad Fischer, a dealer in Hitler artifacts, he is actually a dedicated forger. Kujau gets the notion to falsify a diary after an expert verifies the authenticity of one of his Hitler paintings based on a hastily faked piece of Hitler’s writing on the reverse of the painting.
As Heidemann searches desperately for answers, he comes discovers the first diary, and so begins the journalistic equivalent of a marriage made in hell.
